now THIS is Iowa weather!!

i had a GREAT day!!

first off, the weather is un-beatable!! i'm in heaven... no wait-its Iowa!! ;)

second--HAWKS WON!!!!! it was close, and we did lots of yelling,... Hyatt actually did lots of pacing. (FYI, don't watch Hawks football with Mike Hyatt. he paces...) but they pulled it off in 2 very awesome field kick BLOCKS right at the end! they'd better step it UP soon, but we're happy with the win for now!

third--well its really just been a nice day! my parents took ethan this afternoon. i knew he wouldn't sleep at Jakes house(where we watched the game) so my mom and dad said theyd watch him for us. he had fun and took a nap and was awesome for the rest of the night! LOVE schedules! some random things happened today, like when we got home Matts car was gone... stolen if you will. we searched for it and ended up calling his dad. well his dad had it... in Newton. guess thats what we get for leaving the keys in the car!

backtrack to last night. Matt had finally given me some cash to go clothes shopping so i had been trying to find a night to run to Target($80 goes further at Target!!) finally i settled on friday and since Jess didn't have her kiddos she tagged along! we had a great time! we talk all day, but we never really hang out anymore, and it was nice! we did some shopping, got her phone battery fixed!, went to Village Inn for dinner. yeah i know that sounds fancy but she had $5off coupons AND we got some awesome pancakes! pumpkin pancakes and apple w/carmel syrup ones. our total bills were $2.30. can't beat that!!
we got back to town and stopped at Mandy's casa to sit around the fire for a bit! that was fun because i like fires! and there were plenty of people there for good conversations!
OH-and i got 2 shirts and a pair of pants, a tank top and a crock pot at Target. the crock pot is now Matt's special Football Cheese Dip crockpot! we used it today, it works quite nicely!!

tonight i got to hang out with BOTH my little brothers! we had some pizza, sat around and played some rock band!

all in all today was great!! and there are still 2 more days in the weekend to go!! sweet! if they are all as good as this it will be the most perfect weekend ever!!

oh yeah... and this is what i did tonight. i looked so white trash--and i dont even care!
